Because its in Japan with a 13 hour timezone difference. And it's in Japan because that's where the money and interest for this fight is.

Are you not reading the Tuesday part?

Not quite sure if main card itself starts at 3:30 am ET or the actual fight? My guess is the card meaning that they should be entering ring at 5 am ET approximately..

Well, most people have been complaining about the time not the day.

most stadiums in Japan get rented out months in advance. Likely was the soonest, available day.

and they prob didn’t want to do it the same morning s Bud/Spence

Fulton is a great fighter and a proud champion but in this fight, he is facing an all-time great in Inoue. Fulton's best chance to see the final bell or finish the fight on his feet is by holding and clinching the whole fight, furthermore, punching low and in the breaks. In other words, make a dirty and ugly fight.

Fulton thought his best chance was complaining about hand wraps.........

ESPN said on the Saturday broadcast the main event should start at around 8 am but tune in earlier just to be sure.
